Hello,
 
I'm new to FreeBSD (2.2.1), after 13 years working with, and managing,
various UNIX flavors, mainly SunOS and Solaris. I must say that I'm very
positively impressed with FreeBSD.
 
However, I have some problems with AMD, the FreeBSD's automounter.
I would like to know if there is any way of configuring AMD in
such a way that it could use the same auto.home indirect map that
is shared (using YP) in our local network. I dont't want to
maintain two parallel "home" maps: one for Sun's automount clients
and another for FreeBSD AMD clients. Is it possible?
 
Thanks,
--JM
